New College of California's Women's Spirituality Program Presents

A Celebration Of The Birthday Of Enheduanna

With BETTY MEADOR, who will share her new work on Enheduanna's Forty-
Two Temple Hymns !

The First Writer of Record
Enheduanna's poetry and hymns were written in ancient Sumerian, circa
2300 B.C.E., on clay tablets and were only discovered by
archeologists in Iraq in the past century. Enheduanna held the most
important religious office in the land, high priestess to the moon
god and goddess, Nanna and Ningal, in their temple in Ur.

Betty De Shong Meador is a Jungian analyst, member of the C.G. Jung
Institute of San Francisco, now retired. Her beautiful and powerful
translations of the poetry of Enheduanna appear in her book, Inanna -
Lady of Largest Heart and in the forthcoming On Your Radiant Site -
The Sumerian Temple Hymns of Enheduanna.
